It's sad how often optimism goes along with stupidity. For instance, dopey, sleepy-eyed Scott Walker is so convinced he will be the Republican candidate for president that his two sons plan to skip a semester of college next year so they can campaign for him in New Hampshire. Ah, the fantasies of youth. Scott will not be the candidate. Meanwhile over at the Jeb Bush household, that same kind of irrational optimism is rampant. "Of course you'll be president," Columba assures Jeb, "It's your turn. They can't deny you your turn." But Jeb will not be the candidate. Who will be the candidate? Well, if the GOP is smart, which they generally aren't, it won't be either of these clowns. Nor will it be unctuous Rafael Cruz, sleazy Bobby Jindal, evolution denying Mike Huckabee, backward Ben Carson, enormous Chris Christie or curlywigged Rand Paul. In fact if they can't find someone who seems to have a modicum of decency and a shred of empathy for the real Americans, they might as well run a mental case like Rick Santorum for all the good it will do.
